Breath of Fire IV walkthrough.


Chapter 1: The Awakening Person
1.  Symptoms
The story begins with Nina, princess of Wyndia, together with Cray, in search
of Nina's sister, who was lost during the battle between the East and West
Continent. They travel in a desert boat across the desert at night. During the
next day, something happens. There is a dragon appears in front of them and
starts attacking them. Eventually, they are crashed to the desert.

The boat needs to be repaired and the duo has to get spare part to repair it
but they cannot leave the boat along. So Nina decides she will travel to the
south where there is a town and Cray stays to keep on eye of the ship.

Now Nina appears on the map. Follow the path to an area where Nina will
discover something and enter. There is a large hole where a merchant's cart is
fallen down into it and he manages to get out by his ostrich-like animal. Nina
observes further more but she also slide into the hole. When Nina approaches to
the cart, something appears. A dragon in invisible form watches Nina. After
that, it starts to roar and shows up its true form. It flies up to the air but
disappears. What the dragon left is a young man lying with naked body and his
name is Ryu. He regains consciousness and Nina approaches to him but she asks
Ryu why he is naked with her face away. After noticing he is naked, Ryu gets
some clothes that are left by the merchant to cover his body. They introduce
themselves in brief then try to leave this hole.

2.  Dragon-Concerning Person
On the map, the two people will travel south along the path given to an area
with cliffs and canyon. Follow the path that leads down to a bridge. In the
midway to the bridge, there is a sachet that can be seen across the canyon. To
get it, go across the bridge and there is a small path on the east. Follow it
to a sachet and get an item inside. Return to the bridge and follow the other
path. The party will meet a drop off between the path and Nina suggests Ryu to
jump over it. Proceed to another drop off but this one the opposite ledge is
higher. After Ryu jumps over, Nina will try to jump but she drops down...Ryu
tries to save, however, crashes to the ground below while Nina is hovering with
her wings flipping. Enter the nearby and they will spend a night there, talking
about Ryu's history.

Meanwhile, on the West Continent, there is a royal tomb stood there for a long
time. A burst of light appears from the tomb and blows up the trapdoor. A royal
member comes with his guardian. He is Fou-Lu. After several hundred years
beneath the tomb, he is back. Before gaining control on him, he asks his
guardian to guard the entrance to the tomb.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Do not let Fou-Lu take all the items inside treasure chests and sachets that he
discovers, as where Fou-Lu travels, Ryu also travels (later on the game) and
these storage cases contains some useful items for Ryu. Once Fou-Lu has got
them, when Ryu and his party come by, the chests are opened with nothing and
the sachets are gone.
*************************************************************************************************
Leave the tomb to the main route but ruins of block block the way. Step up to
those blocks and jump over to the opposite side. Continue along the greenery
path until there are two guards guarding the tomb. Fou-Lu summons dragon to get
rid of the guards who are trying to get rid of him. Follow the path to the next
area until there is old man who knows very much about Fou-Lu. The old man is
called Yom. After a brief talking, Yom summons a monster to battle against
Fou-Lu.
*************************************************************************************************
Kam
Since Fou-Lu has high level of attacking power and defense, it should be easy
to defeat Yom by transforming into a dragon.
Note
Players can transform Fou-Lu into Spiritual Dragon so that Ryu can transform
into dragon (Aura Dragon) much earlier.
*************************************************************************************************
After Yom is defeated, he calls his troops to get Fou-Lu but Fou-Lu escapes
from them by jumping to the top of the slope and walks away. However, Yom
orders his troops to burn the forest area. Fou-Lu goes along the path to the
right but the burning tree branches fall down and blocks the path. Run along
the path to the left to a bridge. This time Fou-Lu is being surrounded by Yom
and his troops. He asks Yom's name but Yom breaks the bridge and Fou-Lu falls
into the deep canyon.

Return to Ryu and Nina. Ryu suddenly wakes up as he feels something happen but
he ignores that. The next day they manage to reach the exit of the area. At the
map area, proceed to an area with '?'. Enter this area and the couple is in a
T-intersection with a sachet nearby. Proceed forward to Sarai Town. Head right
of the intersection leads to a fishing spot.

Sarai Town
Once inside the town, Nina asks about Ryu. Choose 'I am fine, thank you' and
Nina suggest they split out to ask the spare parts of the desert ship (it does
not matter which options is chosen). Now players have control on Ryu so go
around the town (training or fishing if players wish to, just go out the town).
Get some goods from the stalls and go to the bar for asking. Approach the old
guy that is eating and talk to him. He will ask Ryu to spend him on eating
until he is satisfied.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
The objective of the game is simple, make the old man satisfies with food and
wine and he will tell Ryu about where to get the spare parts. When the game
starts a display showing three meters of two blue words and a red word. The
first row, which is blue, indicates when his stomach is full. The second row
marked with red word is the level of satisfaction of the old man and the third
one is the drunken level of the old man.
To get the old man something to eat and drink, simply press the corresponding
button to serve him. There are two costs of the food served, 1 zenny and 5
zenny for the food. The 1 zenny-food has lower increment on all meters whereas
the 5 zenny one has more increment on the meters. However, players must feed
him until he satisfies, that is the red bar is full.
*************************************************************************************************
When the old man has satisfied, he will tell Ryu that there is information
teller opposite to the inn. Leave the bar and approach Nina. Now the two people
are in a party again. Go to the information teller he will tell party to guess
how much the information is worth of.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
In this guessing the value the information, players are given four chances to
guess. Each guess will result word expression of the guy. Players must give a
suitable range of money in order to get the information. If it is too high or
too low, he will express something to notice players. If players fail to guess
the value of information all the money bet will be returned and players have to
try again.
To get the information successfully, the betting should be around 100 to 200
zenny. Please bear in mind that if players guess the right value, all the money
bet will be taken by him.
*************************************************************************************************
The teller tells that to get the spare parts, there is a merchant that is
outside of the wall of the town may have the parts they want. However, players
must get the secret code.

After hearing from the information teller, leave the town and go north. There
is a question mark appears between on the north of the town. Enter to reach a
merchant on a small oasis. After exchanging words, the merchant will give the
desired item to the party. Now leave the oasis and return to the town.

Sarai Town
When the party is at the entrance of the town, go around the wall to the left
to a merchant. Talk to him and he will show the way to enter his shop if
players have the ??? in the inventory. Return to the entrance and go to the
bar. Walk to the side of the kitchen and into it. The chef will halt the party
members but allows them to enter the passage at the corner. Once in the spare
part shop, Nina asks the merchant for the broken ship. However, the merchant
does not any of the spare parts Nina wants but he suggests her to go to the
Valley of Desert Ship (????). Leave the town and return to the map, a road to
the valley is shown.

Valley of Desert Ship
Enter the valley and there is large desert ship crashed into several pieces.
There is a chest on southeast. Approach the handle (steering) and turn right
twice. Go inside the blocked area with chest containing 200 zenny. Return to
the handle and turn left three times. Go to the middle body of the ship and go
inside. Operate the switch to lower the anchor down and climb up the ladder up
for a treasure chest. Climb down and go to the anchor for a lift up one level
from the ground. Proceed to another hole and there is old man with a dog
inside. Talk to him and he will get Ryu a shovel for 25 zenny or 50 zenny plus
his dog searching for the items.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
The sandy area on the right hand of the old man contains the parts Nina wanted.
It is recommended that a dog in help a lot of locating the area that has spare
parts. The dog will sniff around and bark when it finds something beneath the
sand. Use the shovel to dig them up. Please bear in mind that the shovel will
be broken after several times of usage.
*************************************************************************************************
After obtaining all the items, leave this valley and go back to Sarai Town.

Sarai Town
Enter the bar and something happens. A group of military troops under Captain
Rasso is questioning people inside the bar and execute some of the people. Nina
comes in to interfere and asking why doing such cruel thing. Rasso knows about
Nina and underestimates her ability. When Nina gets very serious, Rasso sends
Emecafu to come out and stop Nina.
*************************************************************************************************
Emecafu
This is a battle between Nina and the Iron Demon. Basically she will not have
any problem dealing with the opponent if her level status is high. Watch out
for the opponent's magical attack.
*************************************************************************************************
When Nina defeats Iron Demon, Rasso calls his backup to catch Nina. Ryu rush
towards Rasso and uses the Royal Sword to stop him. However, the sword is
broken but they manage to escape.

At the map screen, go to the north and there is a special event happens on the
midway. Enter the area with T-intersection and the party discovers that the
troops are guarding the path and hides from them. After that, players will be
on the map screen and after this event; Ryu cannot go to the fishing spot to
fish again. Follow the path along the west of the Sarai Town to the next town,
Chamber Town.

Chamber Town
Go into the doorway facing the entrance of the town and there is a treasure
chest. Leave the machine hut and approach the mechanic on the east corner. Nina
will ask him something about this town. According to the mechanic, this is one
of the towns that had been bombarded with curse cannon during the war and what
Nina sees is a small portion of the town that is free of the curse but most of
portions of the town are still filled with curse. After that, a group of
workers with protectors worn leave the area on the west for a rest. After
finishing the talk, go to the dining hut next to the closed gate and there are
people who are having their meal (it will be empty and something is cooking if
the party does not approach the mechanic). Talk to the cook there to get
information of the curse-polluted area. He says no one is allowed to enter the
area without a guide. Go to the workers' hostel and kitchen side has a person
who has items and weapons for sale whereas the right side is the bedroom of the
workers. Get some equipment and talk to all the workers.  After that approach
the cook who is now guarding the dining hut. Talk to him and something
approaches towards the closed gate slowly. This appears three to four times and
then a man in robot-like armor knocks down the gate and he is called Master.
The cook asks him why he comes out from the working area. Then Nina wants to
enter the area. Master then argues with the cook of offering himself as the
guide. After the conversation, Master joins the party and leading Ryu and Nina
entering the polluted area. Follow the passage to the west to enter the
polluted area.
There are three treasure chests inside this area: two of them can be reached by
finding the path leads towards them whereas the other one requires the party to
enter the main area and exit through the other exit that is a steep slope. The
two chests that are reachable easily contain dynamite jade and some money.
Enter the main room and the party will step on a tied crate that will go down.
Master tells Ryu and Nina to go back to the crate and stand on it, revealing a
path for him to get through. At the same time, the party will be split into
two, one is only Master and the other one consists of Ryu and Nina. However,
only Master can climb down the ladder. To switch controlling the characters,
press SELECT. Have control on Ryu and Nina first. Follow the path to the crate
and stand there to lift the opposite crate. Switch to Master and let him go
through. Before stepping on the crate, open the treasure chest for an item and
step on the crate. Now Master ask Ryu and Nina to reach the valve switch on the
top so take them to the switch and go out through the other doorway to a
treasure chest containing an armor. Switch to Master to reach the lower valve
switch. Master tells Nina that the switches must be turned on simultaneously in
order to open the door. After that, bring the party to the next room and there
is a funny sound appears. Master will notify that situation of the area and
continue the journey. The camera angle shows a zombie-like fish swimming
beneath the polluted water. When the party approaches a small hut, the sound
becomes spookier and nearer to the party. Master suggests that the party should
run quickly but it is too late. The monster jumps out from the water and the
party starts running except Ryu. The monster starts breaking the wooden bridge
and causing Ryu to fall down whereas the others run to a safety platform.
However Ryu manages to escape in time and the whole party members are engaged
to a battle with the monster.
*************************************************************************************************
Skull Fish
Like the Dragon Zombie in BOF3, this monster has poisonous breath that causes
the members to be poisoned so make sure there are sufficient antidotes to cure
the poison, as the AP is required for magical attacks. However, this is a slim
down version of Dragon Zombie and keep attacking it will eventually kill it.
*************************************************************************************************
When the monster is defeated, it dies and drops into the water. Now it is safe
from any threats, proceed to the wall with an orange polygon to exit this
polluted area. The party is outside of the polluted building and Chamber Town.
Walk forward to leave this area and return to the map area.

Now there is an alternate route back to the crashed ship so go to the ship.
Nina introduces Ryu and Master to Cray that helped her in finding the spare
parts. They stay there for a night and during that night a dream appears where
Ryu, Nina and Cray are in an underground room whereby they enter through
swimming. Follow the path to a staircase and go up. There is a door so enter to
the next room with a staircase going down and a door covered with red curtain.
Go through the curtain and there are two people coming into the next room. Cray
suggests that they should go across behind the curtain so follow his
suggestion. After that, everything is vanished and Nina and Cray are wakened.
They tell each other that they have the same dream. While they go out from the
camp, Ryu suddenly awakes and it seems like Ryu also has the same dream. The
party decides to abandon the broken ship and explore the desert.

Croc's Valley
Go to the west of the Chamber Town to a valley called Croc's Valley. There is a
master called Ralf with his ostrich-like bird. To become his apprentice, there
are no requirements but to learn skills from him, players must perform magical
combo of exactly or more than the hit numbers he required. Align any suitable
candidates and leave this valley.

Dam
The party arrives at the top of the dam and Nina says the two flows of muddy
water blocks the way of getting across it. There is a worker comes and Nina
asks him how to get across. The worker tells her to get across the dam, the two
flows of water must be closed and to close it, she must have the keys that lock
the two engine controlling the gates of the dam. Go to the nearby chest to get
the Shot Sword for Ryu and go into the door. Follow the tunnel to the lower
part of the dam where there are some miners mining gold. Approach the guy
beneath the resting hut and Nina asks him where to get the keys to unlock the
gates. That guy tells her the keys are on the woman who is with the miners.
Approach the woman and she is shocked when Nina wants to close the dam.
However, she prepares for the worst and gives the keys to Nina. Return to the
tunnel and use the keys to open the gate. Enter and operate the engine to close
the left gate. Now the gate is closed, go across the gate and climb the ladder
to a treasure chest for Vitamin. Climb down the ladder and enter the door with
a ladder beneath the door to the second engine room. Unlock the gate and
operate the switch. But this time the engine does not close the gate. A girl
comes in to explain the mechanism of the engine operating. Now it is time for
mini game.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
To get the engine working, one person must rotate the tape band and the other
one flips the switch. This is done automatically where Ryu rotates the band and
Cray flips the switch. To rotate the switch, circle the directional-pad several
times until the motor spins faster enough and flip the switch to enable the
gate to be closed. Players can retry again if you fail.
*************************************************************************************************
Leave the engine room and go through the closed gate. There is a treasure chest
at the end of the dam. Enter the door and follow the tunnel to the other side
of the mining area with a dam watcher in a tall hut. Climb down the ladder on
the elevator and lower the wooden board to go across the mud. Go to the hut
where the guy is and he will give a handle to operate the elevator. Go back to
the base of the elevator and use the handle to operate it. The elevator starts
going down but jam in the middle shaft. Meanwhile the water on the upper of the
dam is too flooded and the dam cannot hold much longer. The warning bell is
being rung by the dam watcher and all the miners are running for life except
the woman who is slow. The party also facing difficulty to lower the elevator
down and Ryu keeps trying to flip the switch but the elevator moves down bit by
bit. When the water comes like a tsunami, the whole dam is destroyed but the
party manages to reach the top of the shaft for safety. They searching for the
woman that is trapped in the water but she is safe with the safety ring wore
and the party leaves the dam.

The four people continue to an area marked '?'. Enter the area and they are on
a cliff of the shore. Suddenly a dragon appears from the mud and it is called
Nosto. That dragon keeps looking at Ryu, as seems they have something in their
mind. There is frog-like person with a pi-pa like instrument, sitting on top
one of the structures. He tells the members he can calm Nosto by singing a
song. However money must be given, the more players give, he will sing the more
until the whole song is sung. After Nosto leaves, the party will leave this
area also.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
To listen all the songs, just give him 10 zenny rather than 100 zenny, as all
the songs are sang are four only and they cost 40 zenny.
*************************************************************************************************

Kiria Village
Walk along the new road to this village. Proceed carefully, as there is a land
mine near the stone bridge. If the party leader accidentally steps on it the
other party members will go away and the land mine explodes, but not reduction
on HP. Go to the back of the house and there is a child sitting on the ground.
He will tell that there are three chests behind the rest house: one of them
contains an item whereas the others have nothing. I am not sure whether the
item inside differs or not. Go to the stone bridge and watch out for animal
traps. If bad luck comes across, press directional pad quickly to loose it and
there is no reduction on HP. Beyond the bridge is the village elder's house and
notice that there is path going up to a cave that is guarded by a guard. To
enter the cave, the party must obtain permission from the elder. Talk to the
people around the house and players will know that the elder is not in the
house. Go around the house and there are some booby traps set by the elder. For
more experience gained, head towards the small doghouse on the left of the
elder's house and engage battle with an insect captured by the elder.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
This monster is quite difficult to be harmed, as it has a shield protecting it
(the damage value with a star represents the damage absorbed by the shield).
However, keep pounding it with physical attacks and its shield will break then
it is easy to be defeated. Learn its two magical attacks, one is when it has a
shield and the other one when it loses its shield.
*************************************************************************************************
There are two covered holes on the east of the elder's house. Drop into them to
get 400 zenny and a medicine. Climb the ladder to emerge in a room with some
barrels. Use Cray's action or Master's action to clear the barriers and leave
the storeroom. Return to the elder's house and fall into another covered hole.
The party will drop down to the same underground area but there a ladder to
climb up and emerge inside the elder's house.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
This is the only way to enter elder's house. If players enter via the door, a
cage trap will fall down and players cannot go in, plus being humiliated by
elder's parrot.
*************************************************************************************************
Talk to the parrot, ask it whether its master is gone out or not, or else
players will get nothing from the parrot. After that, the party must gain trust
from the parrot or else no information. When parrot trusts the party members,
it will tell them its elder is gone for hunting in the Western Forest. Leave
the village and return to the map area.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Players can now return to Sarai Town and the fishing spot nearby for some
shopping and fishing.
*************************************************************************************************

Western Forest
Go to the forest spot and enter. There is a person that forbids anyone to enter
the forest if players do not get the necessary information from the parrot.
After the explaining that the party wants to see the elder, he will let the
party goes in. Turn left to enter the hunting area. As the members enter, there
is a dry well on the north and there are some traps and covered holes, which is
similar around the elder's house. The covered holes leads to an underground
area with two treasure chests but only two of the covered holes are above the
chests. One of the chests has four medicine herbs and the other is an armor
called Aura Ring. Drop into the holes and get the items. Return above the
ground via the ladder and the party will emerge from the dry well. Notice there
are three tree trunks and head to the one on the northeast. Place the fruit on
top and wait for the warthog-headed animal to come out. It will go and eat the
fruit but it spots the party and runs away. Now there are tracks left by the
animal so run quickly to follow the path before it disappears. These tracks
lead to a hidden entrance and inside has a treasure chest. The other tree trunk
on southeast baits that animal to come out but when it runs, it leaves the
tracks leading to the hidden are above the exit area. Inside the hidden area is
a treasure chest containing eight apples. The tree trunk near the entrance of
this area, allows the animal leave its tracks leading to the exit path. Go to
the slope on northeast and follow the path carefully to the exit at the end.
Now the party is in a small stream. Jump over the gaps until the members reach
the higher ledge opposite to the entrance. Proceed forward and around the
corner is a sachet containing Wisdom Seed. Go back to the intersection and
there is sloped path leading up so follow it to the next area. When they
arrive, the elder is waiting for an animal to appear. A warthog-headed animal
comes out but gets scared away from something. The elder feels a pity that he
only sees a glance of the animal and finds out Nina and her party has arrived.
Nina asks the elder whether if there is way to Sinister Town. However, there is
a rumble noise and a gigantic version of the warthog-headed animal appears.
This has surprised the elder and the party is engaged in a battle.
*************************************************************************************************
Maman
Its dangerous attack is the Body Press. Players can pound it with physical
attack and use healing medicine or healing magic to cure, or use combined magic
to obtain greater damage (save AP for the magic and healing with items). Since
it is an animal, it will not hold too long before being defeated.
To make it stop for a while use its favorite fruit (thanks to GameStation for
posting this tip) and attack as heavily as possible.
*************************************************************************************************
Once it is dead, the party members and the elder return to Kiria Village.

3.	Vanishing Princess
Kiria Village
At the elder's house, the elder tells Nina about the war between east and west
continents. During the war, people who wish to travel to Sinister Town will
have to use the cave above the waterfall of the village, as the main road is
blocked by the troops. After the history, the elder gives permission to Nina
and her friends to use the cave to travel to Sinister Town. Before going to the
cave, Ryu accidentally steps over the covered hole and whole party members has
to exit through the storeroom. Meanwhile, Fou-Lu is saved by a person and he
wakes up with the person that saves him. However, since Fou-Lu is too weak, he
wants to leave the house but collapses (players might have guessed the person
who saves Fou-Lu is Babaderu of BOF3).
When regaining control of the Cray and friends, enter the cave and go across
the stream to the opposite side that has an item inside a treasure chest (Water
Jade).  After getting the item, follow the path where the water comes from to
another cave. Now inside of the next cave has a fork path. Go to the left path
leads to a treasure chest for an item and follow the path on the right to
another cave. Beyond the cave is the source area of the waterfall. There are
two doorways in this area but a small stone blocks the doorway on the east.
Make your way to the first gap and head northwest to a chest containing 500
zenny and return to the gap. Follow the path on northeast to exit. The party
members are in a deep well with a ladder so climb up.

Sinister Town
The party climbs up from a well inside Sinister Town. A short cut scene shows
the prosperity of the city and a sister chasing a boy.Enter the orphanage and
talk to the sister and exit the orphanage. Now the sister that chases the child
suddenly trips and feels dizzy. Approach the sister and talk to the child. His
name is Chino and he wants the party to play catch.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
Just like the old times, dash to chase Chino but time carefully when Chino
comes, as either both sides face each other or tailing Chino will only let him
changes his running direction. Use ambush tactic to catch Chino ensures the
winning.
*************************************************************************************************
After getting Chino, Nina and her friends are inside the orphanage. Nina asks
the mother whether she had seen Elina and the children there knew the monastery
was visited by a group of winged royal members like Nina. The mother says Elina
loved children very well and kind. At the same time, those children start to
play hide and seek but the sister is unable to stop them. It is time for Nina
and her friends to search them out.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
Like the hide and seek in BOF3, players have to find the children that hide in
each corner of the city. Once one of them is found, he or she will give hint of
other child's hiding place. The following are the children's hiding place:
Upstairs of the inn
Main gate of the town
Doorway near the orphanage
Behind the building with a guard stands in front of the door
First level of the outer wall of the town
Ground floor corner inside the orphanage
*************************************************************************************************
However, players will find that Chino cannot be found so return to the
orphanage. Talk to the children to find out Chino is hiding inside the dungeon.
Go to the entrance where there is a man guarding and he will not allow the
party to enter. But notice there is woman carrying a water pot on her head.
Talk to her and she will distract the guard away from the entrance. Enter the
dungeon and follow the stairs down to a room. Follow the raised woods into the
kitchen and leave this room. Go upstairs and follow the path to the next room.
There is a long staircase going beyond the next room. Players can see Chino
locks himself in the jail room next to the entrance but players cannot reach
him from outside. Enter the door on the north and follow the stairs up to the
second floor of the jail rooms. Enter the one on the left and fall into the
room below. Get the item inside the sachet and go upstairs again. This time
fall through the hole above the jail room above where Chino is hiding and the
party finally finds Chino.
After finding Chino, he says when Elina left the city, he saw a merchant at the
main gate of the city. The sister tells Nina the merchant Chino saw named
Marlock. The mother tells Nina that Marlock had brought Elina to the West
Continent by his desert ship. Leave the orphanage and go to the building with a
guard. Talk to the guard but he does not allow the members to enter the
building and teaches them a lesson by engaging a battle against him.
*************************************************************************************************
Kahn, Battle 1
This guard has some skills to be learned. However his magical attacks does not
cause much damage if the characters have higher HP and other basic abilities.
Watch out for his magical attacks that reduce 20% of the character's defense
and the one raise his attack power by 20%. Use him as a practice for big combo
attack.
*************************************************************************************************
After he is defeated, Marlock appears and says what a useless guard. He invites
Nina and her friends to his house. Nina asks him whether he had seen her sister
before. Marlock admits Elina had ridden his ship to West Continent and she was
being invited to go there. Cray cannot believe that a princess has gone to the
enemy's continent and Marlock says the people there needed her. Cray gets very
mad and grab him but later he drops Marlock. Marlock wants the party to do him
a favor due to the party's strong will to search Elina and Nina is happy about
it. However, Marlock wants Nina to stay there and the rest of the party members
go out to find thief who are stealing his cargo. The three persons are then
outside of Marlock's resident and discussing above robberies of merchants'
cargo. Inside Marlock's residence, he walks back and forth while Nina stands
and waits. She wonders why she needs to stay there and Marlock replies that due
to the burglar activities, there is no one else can help him look after his
properties. This shocks Nina. Leave the house and approach the person who is
standing next to the main gate of the city. Talk to him and he will tell the
guys there is a thief with a large sachet outside the desert. Return to the map
and there is a new path to a new area called Ajito.

Follow the path and there is a question mark appears so enter. Cray and his
friends find a guy with a large sack is stopping at a small oasis. Cray goes
forward and asks him. However, that guy runs away and the party feels something
fishy then start chasing him. Meanwhile, back to Marlock's residence, Marlock
suddenly approaches Nina and scares her to step back a few steps. He tells her
at this moment while waiting her friends to come back, he comes closer and
says...(it seems like Marlock is interested on Nina)

Ajito
Return to Cray, he and others chase into a cave where the thief is resting.
Approach him and he starts running again. This time the party has to chase him
in order to question him.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
The objective of this game is to chase and catch the thief. Like Chino in
Sinister Town, try not to get to close on him or else he will change running
direction. The only difference is there are three barrels inside the cave. Use
the three barrels to block the path leading smaller part of the cave. After the
trap is set, chase the thief into the trap and he will run back and forth
between the cave walls. Walk slowly so that the thief still does the silly act
or else he will escape from the trap.
*************************************************************************************************
When he is caught, he denies that he is the one doing the dirty work. After
questioning him, he can serve the characters as a master (Stole) by giving him
all the money in the inventory (rats!). Become his apprentice will have greater
increment in speed only and he teaches a skill when the number of different
items inside the inventory meets his requirement. Meanwhile at Marlock's
residence, he walks back and forth then suddenly approaches Nina and asks her
whether she is bored or not and such saying shocks her. Secondly he suggests
why she is not walking around like him rather standing there. Back to Cray,
they are now outside the cave and decide to return Sinister Town.

Sinister Town
Enter Sinister Town and go into Marlock's residence. However, Marlock
intentionally advises the party members of their unconcern heart and Cray
argues back that Marlock is the one behind the stealing of merchandized items.
However, Marlock explains that as a merchant, his goods are being treated like
that and approaches Cray. This makes Cray feel unpleasant. Marlock assigns
second job to Cray and his party members. After that, the three guys are
outside of Marlock's residence again, figuring where to get the job Marlock
meant. Meanwhile, inside Marlock's residence, Marlock keeps walking back and
forth and Nina observes him. Marlock persuades Nina to accept him and Nina
feels very discomfort. Outside of the residence, finally Cray suggests the
party should go to north side of the city to look for.

On the map area, follow the new opened path and there is a question mark so
enter. Unlike other question mark area, there are no goodies but a signboard
showing the location of a fishing spot. Leave this small area and another path
is shown on the map that leads to a fishing spot. Get some fishes for later
use.

Sanbashi
This is the place where Cray suggested. It is similar to a harbor. Approach the
muscular guy between the crates and storage room and talk to him about the job.
He will order the party to arrange the cargo inside the storage room.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
The objective is to arrange the cargo to their respective places. There are two
places to place the cargo: the north side for the vase like light green cargo
and south side for the light brown barrel like cargo. There are some green
colored barrels that need to be removed. To arrange the cargo, use Cray's
action to push them to proper place and use Master to remove old barrels.
Notice that some of the old barrels have monsters inside. For the cargo, each
correct placing will award 200 points and 50 points for removing the old
barrels. An additional bonus points will be given if the cargo are placed
correctly.
*************************************************************************************************
After finishing the job, that guy has another job for Cray and his friends and
Cray is very unhappy about it. Meanwhile, at Marlock's residence, Nina has
something to talk. When Marlock asks her whether she is tired or not but she is
not sure. Then something goes wrong...

The scene is back to the harbor, the muscular guy tells Ryu to use the crane to
load the cargo into the ship.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
The objective of this task is to pick up the cargo in the loading bay and put
in a blue square. Up to ten units of cargo need to be loaded to the ship. To
control the crane, the Up-pad shortens the crane, Down-pad for extending it,
left & right pads for turning the crane and Circle button to pick up or release
the cargo. However, there is time limit to do this job. To pick up the cargo,
turn the crane and make sure the hook's shadow is above the cargo before
picking up. For releasing the cargo into the ship, make sure that the cargo's
shadow is on the blue square. After each success loading, Master will put
another cargo to be loaded.
*************************************************************************************************
When time is up, the person in charge will give comment to Ryu and his friends
and Nina arrives at the same time, together with Marlock. Being appreciated
with Ryu's work, he gives reward to Ryu. Marlock says they can follow the ship
with a VIP room for them then the ship travels across the desert. Honestly
speaking, the VIP room that Marlock means is a big crate with four people
inside. Cray mumbles about what kind of VIP room is this and starts to shake
the crate. Nina calms him so that he stops shaking the crate. The ship
continues traveling across the desert.

Small House on a Mountain
The scene changes to a small house where Fou-Lu is. Now he is fully recovered
and leaves the house. Once outside, Babaderu knows he has to go so he just
tells him the current events of the empire. After that, follow the path
downhill to the second area. When Fou-Lu goes forward, Yom and his troops are
waiting him. To finish Fou-Lu for good, Yom calls his gigantic bird, Cafu.
*************************************************************************************************
Cafu
This bird is tough and has powerful magical attack. Transform Fou-Lu into
Spiritual Dragon and use his strongest magical attack to kill the bird. When
the bird's is very low, it heals itself and further attacks brings victory to
Fou-Lu.
*************************************************************************************************
After defeating Cafu, Fou-Lu tells Yom that he has fully recovered. But Yom
summons another similar bird and it flies up to the top of the cliff above
them. Yom sends his troops to get Fou-Lu. This time Fou-Lu transform into a
dragon and flies away and Cafu start chasing him. On the way, Cafu keeps
releasing energy shots and hits Fou-Lu. Fou-Lu tries to fly up but still been
knocked down by the bird.

Hasibito Town
Back to the desert, Marlock's ship is departing from the transport station and
the two officers talk about the merchandized goods. They leave the docking area
and Cray opens up the crate and whole party come out. Leave the docking area
and the party members are in a small town. This is a bridge tower where the
merchandized goods are transported to the West Continent. Basically this bridge
tower consists of three lifts: two outside of the tower and one inside the
tower. The lift outside the first floor only transports to the second floor. To
explore the whole tower, use the main lift inside the tower that has a shaft of
four floors tall.
The first two floors have nothing so ignore them. Take lift to the third floor
and there is a cabinet room with some goodies plus a treasure chest containing
Galas's Domino on the lift room. Get them and go to the fourth floor. Follow
the path to a lift outside and let it takes the party to the top of the bridge
tower. When they arrive the top, Nina suspects the lift automatically goes down
but something happens on the top. There is a portal opening to let them go
into. However, Captain Rasso comes up and surprises the party. The party asks
whether he has brought his men surrounding the tower. He says he is alone and
takes out something that transforms into knight, which is same as the one in
the bar in Sarai Town.
*************************************************************************************************
Emecafu 2
Basically this is the second battle of the same opponent. The only differences
are the party is not Nina alone and the opponent is much stronger. It has a
move that he will defense up a little bit before attacking the party. Use him
as combined magic practice.
*************************************************************************************************
When he is defeated, Rasso cannot believe what has happened to his knight and
the party quickly jumps into the portal. The portal closes, leaving Rasso
behind and he knows that Ryu is the dragon he is looking for.

Now the party is at the transport station in the West Continent. Same as the
one in the east land, except there is no chest in the lift room on the third
floor. Go to the cabinet room for some goodies. Use the lift and go down to the
first floor and leave the station. At the map area, there is a new path leading
to a place called Astaner.

Astaner
*************************************************************************************************
Note
When the party revisits this place later of the game, there will be more items
for sale.
*************************************************************************************************
When the party enters the building, it is blocked and cannot go through. Get
some goodies from the merchants inside the small hut on the right side of the
cannon and talk to a person (muscular one) there and he says something of a
construction carried out nearby. Leave this building and go back to the map
area.

Water Bridge
The party arrives at a bridge structure that is under construction. Approach
the wooden platform connected with wooden path. Climb up the ladder to the
second level and there is a treasure chest with a special drug. Go to the
ladder on the other side and climb up to the top level. There is a worker so
approach him and have him begin the work. Use the small lift to go down to the
ground area and follow the wooden path to a ladder. Climb up the ladder to the
second level and go to the far end for a chest containing 500 zenny. On the
midway between the ladder and the chest is another ladder leading to top level.
Follow the path to a watery area and jump in.
The party emerges to an underground room that is same as the one inside Nina,
Ryu and Cray's dream in the beginning of the game. Explore as usual until the
red curtain. After passing the red curtain to the other side, the two people
notice somebody behind the curtain and one of them flies through the ceiling to
chase them. When Cray and his party enter the room behind the curtain, he
thinks no one has noticed the party but the guy who flies through the ceiling
appears in front of them and asks what they are doing there. Nina quickly
replies that they are searching a queen and asks back whether he has seen her.
He has doubt on the question and asks back what are their purposes of searching
this person. Cray questions him whether he understands the question or not.
However, a troop of guards enters through the red curtain and the party has
nothing to do. The screen blackens and words of Nina's journey are displayed.
The scene goes to a castle tower where Cray is alone inside. The door is opened
and an elder enters and wants Cray to follow him.


Chapter 2: The Unchanged Person
4.	Royal Sword
Rudia Town
Now Ryu and Nina are in a room upstairs of an inn. Get the sachet on the corner
of the bed with the diary that contains a metal. Then go downstairs and there
is man guarding the door. His name is Scias and he is responsible of watching
Ryu, Nina and Master. Since Nina wants to go out, go to Scias' side and he will
ask if Nina really wants to go. After Nina says yes, Scias will follow the
party and he will automatically join the party. Before going to the castle of
Rudia, leave this town to the map.

There is an area marked as Shed, which is on the north of Rudia Town. Head
towards the question mark area and go north. Ryu will meet something in the
middle between the question mark area and Shed. Enter the area and the party
will find there is a signboard showing an area. Leave this area and return to
the map. A new path showing area on the shore is displayed on the map, which is
a fishing spot. Head to Shed first.

Shed
Actually this is a resting area for the people who want to use the bridge to go
across to the north, which is a desert area. Get any necessary equipment and
explore the whole area. There is a person hidden from normal camera view has a
treasure to be exchanged. Return to the map and go back to Rudia Town.

Rudia Town
Go straight east and to the castle. Once inside the castle, Nina asks the
guards to permit her and the party to enter but her request is rejected. There
is an old man comes out and knows Nina's purpose. He says about Cray and his
tribe issue and then goes back inside. Leave the castle and Nina says Cray's
tribe is located on the south, passing a forest called Pauss Forest. Then Ryu
leads the party and leave the town.

Pauss Forest
On the map area there is a new path appears from the east of the question mark
area (east of Rudia Town) and bends to the west then south to a forest. Follow
the new path to the forest. Enter the forest and explore the whole area. There
is a treasure chest on the west after the lower ground area containing three
healing medicines. Leave the chest and follow south then to the west, where
there is a small passage leading to the next area.
On the next area of the forest, Nina hears some child's voice but she is not
sure about it and continues walking. When the voice appears again, Nina is
getting smaller and smaller, finally she has been shrunken to about an ant's
size! Ryu and Master, who are in front of Nina, discover that Nina has
disappeared. At the same time, Scias enters the area and his walking causes a
quake that faints Nina. Thing gets worst when a bird flies between them and
snatches Nina away. The party decides to search Nina so follow the path to the
south cliff and something is there. Three faeries are invisible and tell the
party if they can find one of them while they are going around. Master and
Scias look around but did not find anything. Ryu notices Master there is a
faerie besides him and Master uses his head to bump. The bump really takes down
one of the faerie and the game is over. The faerie (in blue) hates of Ryu
cheating by using his 'Dragon Eye' to find them. Master asks the faerie that
Nina has disappeared and begs him to help. The blue faerie gives him the clue
that the party will find Nina on a tree with bird's voice and the other faeries
second him. The three faeries then vanish.
Go to the end of the risen ground and jump to the ground with two trees. From
there, players can see a sachet on the northwest cliff. Jump to the ground and
get the sachet containing Magic Shard. Return to where the faeries were and go
down to the lower ground and go southwest to a raised ground. On the highest
point of that ground, jump to the tree with the bird's voice. Approach the tree
and use Master's head to bump the tree and a bird flies away.
Now the scene goes to Nina, where she is inside the bird's nest. When she
regains consciousness, she discovers that she is the bird's nest and realizes
she has shrunken. Nina asks why this happens to her but later she decides to
leave this scary area. Go to the tree trunk and the bird comes back. Nina
quickly turns back and run back but a worm falls from above that scares her.
The bird flies over to the other side and Nina begs it not feed her with the
worm but the bird does not know anything. A battle between human and bird is
begun.
*************************************************************************************************
Battle Description
This is the simplest battle in the game. Just use a couple of physical attacks
or more and the bird will go down.
If players prefer to play defense, defense every round and the bird will fed up
(thanks again to GameStation for this tip)
*************************************************************************************************
Go to the tree trunk and beyond it is a stem to climb down. Back to Master and
his party. After the first knock, there is no response and Master decides to
knock again. This time his knock causes a vibration and shakes Nina to fall
down. While falling down, Nina is restoring to her actual size and lands on
Ryu. Poor Ryu, he did it again and he is lying on the ground and Nina is on top
of his body. After Master's explanation of the whole thing, Nina knows she was
tricked by the faeries and Master says his words again. The rest of the members
have no choice but to leave this forest.

Furen Village
At the map area, a new path leading to the new village is displayed so follow
the path. This is Furen Village, where Cray's tribe lives. It seems like they
do not like intruders disturbing the village, as there is a person stand in
front of the entrance of the village. Go to the inn (the house beside the guy
who is swinging his bat) and there is a merchant inside, besides the inn owner.
Get some goodies from him and leave the inn.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Before going upstairs to the elders' house, notice that there is a familiar
person on the top floor of the house. Players will know he is the useless
watchdog of Marlock's house in Sinister Town, Kahn.
*************************************************************************************************
Proceed to the tribe elder's house and Nina will tell what has happened to
Cray. The three elders are very mad about Rudia's attitude to their tribe and
they want to start war on Rudia. However, the blue-suit elder tells the others
to calm down and they understand Nina's effort to report this matter. They
decide to leave their unhappiness aside and the green-suited elder suggests
Nina that she should see Tarbo for help. Tarbo is the former chief's wife and
Cray's mother but after Cray becomes the chief of the tribe, she has moved away
from the village to a rural area of Golden Prairie. Finally the elder with
green suit suggests Nina that the party should ride a horse to travel across
the prairie to look for Tarbo. After that, go to the next room and there is a
staircase leading down to an underground storage room with a sachet containing
an aromor. Return to the main room with the elders and climb the ladder. On top
of the ladder is a bedroom with a lady going around. Talk to her and players
will find out she is finding her apprentice who is disappeared (players will
know who he is).
Leave the bedroom and the house. When the party approaches the stone fence,
that stupid guy, Kahn, jumps down from the house and blocks the party. He is
not satisfied of the last defeat in Sinister Town and wants a rematch inside
this strong tribe so that he can win with honor. Then the rematch begins.
*************************************************************************************************
Kahn, Battle 2
Like the last battle, he will start his attack with his strongest magical
attack and then runs out of AP to perform the second time. Use him again as
practice target because he does not cause much damage on physical attack.
*************************************************************************************************
After Kahn is defeated, his master saw everything and very upset of him. She
says Kahn is not ready for any fight and amazed with the party's ability. Back
to the bedroom, the lady gives advice to Kahn that he is still weak to face any
stronger competitors and she does not this to be happened again. However, Kahn
seems not listening to her advice. Return to the party, the members can leave
the village now but back to the elders' house and to the bedroom. Talk to the
lady and express the party's apology to what the members did to her apprentice.
The lady will leave Kahn's matter away and the party members have potentials
for her (When the party has reached combo damage of 1000 or more). She
introduces herself as Wona（ウナ）and willing to serve as the party's master.
Align suitable candidates and leave this village.

Golden Prairie
A new path is showing on the map, leading to Golden Prairie. Enter this area
and players will find there is a signboard says to travel across the prairie,
horses are needed. Moreover, there is a person under a tree and he will say
players cannot go across the prairie without a horse. Leave this area and
return to Furen Village.

Furen Village
Approach the child beside the shack (with a dog inside) and talk to him. Nina
will ask him whether he can get a horse to travel in the prairie. The boy will
tell her once the party has the horse, start a camp on the edge of the prairie
and one of the members will ride on the horse to travel. After that, the boy
gets a horse and Nina asks who will ride it. But no one wants to ride except
Ryu who is uncertain. Nina asks again and Ryu still does the old action but
that Orm seems has some interest on Ryu. The screen fades.

On the map, go back to the prairie and enter. Now the party has made a camp and
Ryu is learning to ride a special breed of animal (squid-like animal without
feet). It seems like Ryu is not confident riding a real horse and the boy gave
this animal, which is smaller and easier to ride. However, when Ryu rides a bit
forward, he falls down from it and the rest of the members think Ryu is not the
suitable jockey. But when Master says let Ryu going to the prairie and uses his
Dragon Eye to search Tarbo, together with his usual saying. Everyone has no
choice but letting Ryu go. However, again, when Ryu starts traveling through
the prairie, he falls down.

Similar to the desert in BOF3, except this traveling is done on daytime and
there is a compass to help in navigation, Ryu must reach to the camp where
Tarbo lives.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
If players get lost, face west and go towards to leave the prairie.
*************************************************************************************************
Begin the journey by going east until there is a boulder in front and then
northeast. Go until there is a camp with smoke. In case players forget how to
reach this camp, go back to the village and talk to the boy. He will give the
direction to reach the camp. When Ryu arrives, Tarbo feels surprised that a
visitor comes by, and rides with an Orm. She knows Ryu is from the village. Ryu
tells her about Cray and Tarbo also angry of such a thing happened to her son. 
Tarbo certain that Cray is sentenced to death if he is in custody but she
pacifies Ryu not to worry. Tarbo knows that the consequence of Cray will cause
internal war that she does not want to be happened. Ryu agrees her and Tarbo
understands such treatment is very unfair to the village however she notices
that Ryu is a bit tired and stops the conversation. She wants him to go into
the camp, as she knows Ryu has traveled this far to find her and he is very
tired. After Ryu enters the camp, Tarbo enters and Ryu is already in a deep
sleep.

Meanwhile, back to Rudia Town, a trial is being held. The prince of Rudia (I
suppose) questions him why he sneaked into the empire after the war is stopped
and discovered by the military men. Moreover, the Royal Sword given by Rudia is
also disappeared. Cray is speechless of losing the sword. The prince is very
unhappy with Cray's rashness move that is jeopardizing the union of nations.
Cray is very mad and says the prince is only concerned with Rudia's dignity and
ignoring his act. He then explains that a princess of a nation, i.e. Elina has
found to be at the empire. However, the prince thinks Cray's reason is rubbish,
where he does not believe a princess of one of the union of nations is on
enemy's land and Cray is very dissatisfied with what the prince has said. There
are some flashbacks of how Ryu tries to save Nina and broke the sword, plus
Nina gave the sword to Ryu when she first met him. The screen then fades.

The next day, Ryu wakes up and feels energetic. Get out from the camp and Tarbo
asks how he is. To continue with one question that is not answered, approach
her and select the third choice (other choices get nothing from her), which is
the broken royal sword. She will explain the importance of the sword to Cray
and Ryu is very miserable. Tarbo then asks him whether he has broken the sword
or not and Ryu admits. Tarbo tells Ryu that without the sword returning to
Rudia, Cray cannot prove his side but Ryu is confused. Tarbo tells Ryu where to
get help and a map is shown the road to a volcano. She tells Ryu that go to the
south to Goo Volcano and Ryu understand. Before that, Tarbo reminds Ryu to
return to Furen Village to ask how to reach the volcano. Return to the map and
go back to the camp (players cannot go at this point), where is there is an
important event at there. When Ryu arrives at the party's camp, he explains the
reason they should go to the volcano. After that, they pack up the camp and
return to the map area.

Enter the Golden Prairie and again go straight to easy as usual until there is
a boulder. This time turn south and go forward.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
In case players do not know how to reach the volcano, go to village and ask the
elder in a round carpet.
*************************************************************************************************

Goo's Volcano
Enter the cave and watch out for the lava on the ground. It will reduce the
party leader's HP but not fatal. There are two caves on the northeast corners.
Go to the cave with a treasure chest and take 炎のおまもりinside before
entering the cave to the next area (the other cave also leads to the same area
but players have to leave via the cave on the northwest to get the armor). Once
inside the next cave, leave through the cave on the north. In this area, there
are several earth plates above lava flow and two of them have a treasure chest,
containing 500 zenny (the western chest) and Vitamin (southeast) of two. The
plates will move when the party encounters any battle so make sure the party
stands on proper plate before entering any battle. Notice that there is a
hidden cave on northwest corner. Wait for the plate to move towards the cave.
Inside the cave has a chest with Drill Punch for Master's new weapon. Go to the
cave on the east and there are small bridges connecting drop offs to the
blacksmith's house (notice the chest on the lower part).
Enter the house and the blacksmith is surprised of the party's arrival. Nina
asks him whether he can make the Royal Sword to replace the broken one. The
blacksmith replies that he can make the sword but he is lack of the material
that is required, Faerie Drop (Oh dear! It stinks). Furthermore, this material
can be obtained from a forest nearby where there are monsters inside. Master
suddenly remembers the forest where Nina got shrunken and shouts out. The
blacksmith stops telling the name and location of the forest, as Master has
known where the forest is. Before going down the ladder, get an item on the
desk. Climb down the ladder to an underground storage room with two caves. Go
through the cave on the west to emerge on the lower area of the blacksmith's
house. Go to the northwest to the treasure chest for a Dynamite Jade（火薬･ﾉ）.
Return to the storage room and enter the cave on the east. Follow the path to
exit the blacksmith's house.

Pauss Forest
On the map, go to the Pauss Forest and enter. The party will hear a child's
voice and Nina recognizes the voice that shrunk her. Proceed to where the party
first encountered the faerie and there are some sprinkles of spots near the
bushes. Approach the area and stand properly before starting the conversation.
An orange-colored faerie appears and asks how the party finds him. After that,
two more faeries appear and join the conversation. Ryu asks them how to get the
Faerie Drop and they feel a bit ashamed at first but one of them confirms if
Ryu really wants that item. After the confirmation, that faerie wants the party
to face on the back and the red faerie tells them they will follow later on,
with a vase on its hand. Then the blue faerie assures them everything is fine,
with a pair of heavy weights. Finally the orange faerie says this might hurt a
little bit and a stone is carried. The trio throws the items onto the party's
head and makes them fainted.

The party is now in an odd forest area. The red faerie tells party this is the
place where the faerie lives, called Dream World. When the blue faerie speaks
about アイツ, it cries and at the same time, a strange sound appears from the
bushes. The orange faerie tells the party that Aitsu and Dream Demon have
intruded their home and drive them away. The blue faerie says the item that Ryu
wants is being guarded by the demon's henchmen. Now proceed to the henchmen,
although they are invisible, they can be discovered through their sleeping
callouts. Kill all of them and they will leave some life shards and magic
shards. When they are out, there is a gigantic rubber-like monster coming from
the air. Approach it and it dislikes what the Ryu has done to its henchmen. It
also threats Ryu and his party that they do not belong in this world. The
battle for faeries peace begins.
*************************************************************************************************
Dream Demon
Do not use non-physical magic attacks on it. This will only heal it. For
quicker death, use Super Combo or Double Hit that is physical attacks. Each hit
will cause the demon's size changes (either becomes too big or too small).
*************************************************************************************************
After the demon is defeated, it likes a fish without that is struggling and
then disappears. The faeries come out to thank Ryu for helping them get rid of
the demon. The orange faerie suddenly remember what Ryu wants and asks him to
wait for while. That faerie goes into bushes and does the nature process. After
that it takes the Faerie Drop and gives to Ryu. Ryu and the party are back to
Pauss Forest and the faeries hope the party will visit them but Nina cannot
wait to return to Goo's Volcano.

Goo's Volcano
The blacksmith is impressed with the party of getting the material and start to
make the sword. After a while, the sword is done and Nina is very happy because
she can save Cray.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Players can return to the blacksmith with some raw materials for the blacksmith
to make new armors.
*************************************************************************************************

Rudia
Leave the blacksmith's house and go back to Rudia. Enter the castle and Nina
tries to persuade the guard to let her enter but still being rejected. When she
speaks the sword, the attorney comes out and Nina has brought the Royal Sword
but the prince says the sword Nina brought is a fake one and the real sword is
already returned to Rudia by the empire and such word is against the treaty.
When Nina wants to know about her sister, the prince stops and tells her to
shut up, plus Cray will have punishment as usual. Nina has no choice but to
leave the castle. After Nina has left the castle, the old man approaches Scias
and asks him why he did not stop them from making the fake sword. Scias replies
him that his job is to watch and leaves. When Nina and Ryu are outside of the
castle, Nina suggests that they should rescue Cray out from Rudia and Ryu
agrees the suggestion. After the dicussion, Nina notices that Scias has not
come out yet and turn back but Scias is at her back. Go to the inn and go
upstairs to rest.

Meanwhile, a woman rescues Fou-Lu and he is lying on a bed while the woman
applies ointment to his wound. Fou-Lu feels pain and starts to move but the
woman calms him not to move.

Rudia
Back to Nina and her party, now it is nighttime and she urges everyone to start
the operation. When the party enters the castle, Nina tells Scias they must
defeat any guards without mercy that guarding the door and Scias has nothing to
say. At the main hall of the castle, there is only a doorway to go that is the
one on the north whereas the doorway on the south is blocked by a sleeping
guard. Defeat the guard on the north doorway and enter. In the next room, there
is guard guarding the doorway on the east and a staircase leading up. Get rid
of the guard and enter the court. Inside the court there is a treasure chest
containing a ジゲ�"Hat. Leave the court and go upstairs. Follow the staircase
to the top of the tower and there is another guard guarding the room where Cray
is. Defeat him and enter to find that Cray is outside of the room. Nina
approaches to him and he surprises of Nina's visit. Nina tells him that she and
the party are coming to help him to escape away from Rudia. Cray at first does
not want to go, as Nina tells him if he stays, he will sentence to death and
his tribe will cause internal riot due to lack of the leadership of the chief.
For the sake of the tribe, Cray follows the party to escape from Rudia.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
After leaving Rudia, the party cannot return to Rudia for this moment.
*************************************************************************************************

5.	Larwi, Dragon of Wind
Go to Tarbo's tent on the prairie. They discuss about the things happened to
them. Tarbo wonders why Cray is acting childish. Nina explains what he did is
for finding her sister. However, Tarbo suggests the party should have some rest
and tomorrow they will continue the conversation. The next day when Ryu wakes
up, go out from the tent and approach Tarbo. They discuss about the prohibition
of people of East Continent from traveling to the West Continent and then Nina
talks about Ryu, he seems like very sad about his problem but Nina tries to
make him happy. Later, she thinks of a dragon of wind, Larwi in Wyndia
territory and suggests that Ryu should meet it. Tarbo knows that they are
fugitives of Rudia, she gives Cray a Green Jade that opens an underground
tunnel inside the Tarbo Temple.

Tarbo Temple
To get to the temple, go back to the prairie and go straight to east (In case
players forget, return to the village and ask the elder). Enter the temple and
place the jade on the ceremonial table. The statue behind the table will go
down, revealing a cave to be entered. Inside the cave is a maze-like passage
with death ends. Take the only left turn to north and go to the second left
turn on the west. There is a death end with a treasure chest containing 500
zenny. Head the passage on the opposite side (east) and take the second right
turn to the south. Follow the passage to the next room.
The party is inside a room with three beam barriers, which are consisted of
three colored light beams that are reflected by the crystals. A slight touch of
the beam will cause HP damage to the party leader. Observe the room to find
there is a treasure chest on the south wall of the first level corridor. To
reach the treasure, make sure Cray is leading the party. Push the green light
beam handle and walk cautiously to the staircase on southeast. Open the chest
for Silver Spinner of four units. To enter the doorway on the east, walk
downstairs and push the red light beam handle. Go to the green light beam
handle and reverse the light beam position. Return to the red light beam handle
and reverse the light beam position to clear the light barrier in front of the
doorway. Beyond the doorway is a treasure chest containing Light Wrist. Leave
the small room and enter the doorway on the north (there is no barrier blocking
anymore). Follow the stairs to emerge in a small hut and there is a man sitting
on southwest corner. Exchange the treasure with his treasure and leave the hut.
Behind the hut is another treasure chest and leave this entire area.

Am's Swamp
There is a new and quite long road leading to this swamp area. Follow the small
bridge to a small ground area and there is a signboard saying the some parts of
the bridges in the swamp area are broken. Follow the next bridge to the south
then to the west (follow straight south leads to a broken bridge). From the
second ground area, follow the bridge to the third one on the east. Notice the
treasure chest below it. Jump over the small gap to the fourth ground area and
to the bridge with various small gaps. Jump past these gaps and follow the
broken board down to the wet grass floor. Now head northwest back to the third
ground area where the chest is. Open the chest for a tadpole lure. Now go back
to the board. Go a bit east to another broken board and go up to the bridge
that leads to the second area of the swamp.
Follow the bridge to another broken parts of the bridge. Use Nina's action to
find there are two anacondas on the swamp. These snakes are harmless and they
serve as bridges for the party to across. To make them move, simply step on the
crossed boards on the bridge and they are on. There are two treasure chests in
this area, the chest on the southwest has a scale mail armor whereas the chest
in the middle of the area has three life shards. Coordinate the snakes'
position to get across the swamp to the bridge that leads to the next area.
There is not much in this area and the signboard there is just the remark made
by the patrol guards. Follow the bridge on the north to leave the swamp area.

There is a house displayed on the map at a little bit to the northeast. Enter
the area and the house. Go upstairs to find out a faerie is going for stroll
after the dream demon is dead. Talk to it again and say I will it will accept
anyone in the party as its apprentice (after players have help the faeries
build their first house in the village). However, there is not much to explore
so leave this area.

While walking to the north, stop at the question mark spot on the northwest
from the previous one and head west. Now Ryu is on the Shed. Enter the area and
the party will enter through the doorway where the two men were talking. Trade
with Manilo if necessary then leave this area.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Players can now go to the west beach for fishing without going for a long road.
*************************************************************************************************

Head north to Wyndia, in the middle of the road there is a special event so
enter. The party has made a camp and Nina tells Ryu about she and her sister's
background but stops. Cray continues Nina's story and Nina feels frustrated of
all the things had gone through but still cannot find her sister. Return to
Wyndia makes her feel ashamed of not finding her sister and Cray agrees.
However, Ryu senses there is someone approaching and it is an invisible faerie.
That faerie hopes Ryu can help the faeries in their world to build a village
(the overall is the same as the game's predecessor except some minor changes
and improvements). After allocating tasks, return to the camp and continue.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
From now onwards, players can access faerie's village by camping.
*************************************************************************************************

Wyndia
Notice the windmill next to the inn. Enter the windmill and climb up the
ladder. Look who is there? It is Momo from BOF3. Talk to her and choose the
first answer. She will accept anyone to become her apprentice. Select the
suitable candidate and leave the windmill. Head east to the staircase to a lift
and go up to the upper part of the city. Once the party is on the top, go
straight to the windmill opposite (the right one) and follow the stairs up. The
party will emerge at the top of the palace. Go to the other windmill (the left
one) and enter. There is a treasure chest containing an item. Leave the room
and come down to the door below the windmill on the right. Now change the
leader to Nina and enter the palace. Talk to one of the guard and they will
allow the party to enter. But first go to the jail room at the lower part of
the palace. There is a prisoner for exchanging the treasure. Return to the main
hall at the upper level and approach to the door with a servant (again, make
sure that Nina leads the party). The servant is surprised of Nina returning
home and lets her enter the king's bedroom. Inside the bedroom, the king is
worrying about her eldest daughter, Elina and Nina enters. The king feels
surprised and happy that Nina is home, and so as Nina.
After that, they gather in the resting room and it seems the king has known
everything. Cray does not want any apologies but the king thanks him to
reporting this matter and disagrees with what Rudia has done to defend its
honor and not allowing them to search for Elina. His highness also impresses
Cray's strong believe on himself although being accused by Rudia and tells Nina
whatever they do to find Elina, his highness will fully support them, protect
them. Later, Nina mentions the dragon of wind and she has to bring Ryu to meet
it. His highness gives a brief background of the dragon and Cray says the
empire is hunting these dragons down by tracking down anyone who has
relationship between them. Finally the king suggests the party should go to the
forest to the east of Wyndia, where is a witch. But first, his highness
suggests them to rest and depart on the next day. After the stay, Nina and her
father talk for while before leaving Wyndia.

Caska Forest
As the party enters the forest, there is a man on the opposite side of the
stream so go west and turn left to the other side of the stream. Talk to him
and he will give the location of a fishing spot. Go to northwest to the second
area of the forest. Go forward and walk across the log on the stream, to the
treasure chest behind the trees for 500 zenny. Return to the other side of the
stream and follow the path to the wooden bridge to a signboard. It gives
directions of moving the logs floating on the water to other side of the
stream. Move the logs to reach the northwest bank (facing north) and follow the
path to a broken bridge. There is a treasure chest containing Long Shoes.
Return to the log and move between the logs to reach the small island in the
middle of the stream. Go over to the other side of the island and use the log
to reach the sachet there. Now move the logs to reach the bank on the northeast
and follow the path to the next area. The road in this area is split into two,
the left leads to a treasure chest and the right leads to the next area. But go
left first, when turning to the right, watch out for spikes near the trees. The
chest contains one Magic Shard. Go back to the starting point and go right
(east) to another split road. Go left (the right side leads to a dead end) and
enter the next area.
The road here also splits into two. Take the left one (the right one also leads
to death end) and there is a house next to the riverbank. As the party enters,
Ryu asks old lady inside of how to meet Larwi. She then introduces herself and
guess the party's purpose coming here. She approaches Ryu and watches him
carefully. The witch says Ryu's 'Dragon Eye' is different than she saw before.
Nina does not understand what she means and the witch explains that there are
few persons who have such eyes. She tells the party that these persons have the
same feeling/sense, as dragon of wind and every hundred years a new dragon
called Dragon of Alkai Dragon is born. Such person is referred to have mighty
strength. Cray tells the witch that the empire is aiming for Dragon of Alkai
but she has known that and suggests the party to meet Larwi. In order to meet
Larwi, they must have the flute before going to the Tower of Wind. Leave the
house and its area, the party now starts a camp at night and Cray tells Ryu
about the underground dungeon of Wyndia palace that is guarded to prevent any
strangers from entering. However, Nina discovers Scias is gone and she suspects
he returns to Rudia to report everything. Cray urges the party to get the item
quickly.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
When players going back and forth between visited places, there is a question
mark callout appears on Ryu's head while in the middle of between two places.
Inside this area, players can obtain an item and fight any monsters that
appear. However, since the faerie appears during the campfire, players can find
instead of the usual small battlefield, a faerie is crying for help. Take the
party approach to the faerie and it has problem of hunting down all the animals
there. Let Ryu leads the party and drive the animals into a deep hole. To kill
them, use Ryu's sword swipe and take the meat to the faerie. Although there is
not battle in this field, players can leave this area. But the next question
mark callout may also be a hunting ground.
*************************************************************************************************

Wyndia
Go back to Wyndia, in order to gain access to the underground dungeon, the
party must meet the king first. Enter the palace and go to the throne room (the
one with red carpet leading into it). Nina will talk to her father of going to
the underground dungeon beneath the palace. The king knows that to go to the
tower, that item must be brought along so he approves. Leave the palace and go
the windmill on the left. Enter the door and follow the staircase to an
underground door. The guard is now letting the party to go in. Go past the
corridor to the first cave area and go to northeast to a dead end with a
treasure chest for an item. Leave the chest and follow the path along the
south. Turn left (east) to enter the second area. After the small corridor, the
party is behind a small fan with a fork path. The path on the north (straight
line) leads to the next area whereas the right one leads to another treasure
chest Bird's Nest. However, to get the treasure chest, players must time
correctly, as there is a strong wind blowing from the chest, trying to prevent
anyone from reaching the chest.
*************************************************************************************************
Tip
To reach the chest without being blown away quickly, look the position of the
fan. If it is facing north, go up slowly and dash forward to the chest to grab
the item. If players start to run when the fan is facing north, the wind will
also start to blow away the party.
*************************************************************************************************
After getting the item, head north to the next room. In this room, there are
three mechanisms with a board on each of them. To board on, stand on the edge
where the board of the first mechanism will stop for a while and walk forward.
Now wait the mechanism to turn the board and stop at the ledge on the north.
Once the party is there, follow the path to a board that is jutting out from
the ledge. Stand on the edge and wait for the second mechanism to stop the
board next to the one the party is standing. After that, wait it to turn and
stop at the small ledge on the south wall. There is a hidden treasure chest.
Return to the second mechanism and wait until its board joints with the board
on the third mechanism on the east. Wait for the third mechanism to stop at the
ledge on the east and leave to enter the next area. Go past the small walkway
and there is a long corridor leading to the north. However, to make things
complicated, there is a strong blowing out from the door of the end of the
corridor on a few seconds interval. Stand near the corridor and want for the
wind to become weak. Aim for the safe spot with a sachet on the right wall and
run. Get the sachet of four Healing Herbs and aim the safe spot with another
sachet on the left wall. Run when the wind is weak and get the sachet there.
Aim for the safe spot on the right wall near the door and run when the wind is
weak. After that, enter the door to the next area. The party is now in the room
with the flute. Take it and leave the underground dungeon via the way the party
entered. When the party leaves the dungeon, the scene goes to Scias.

While the party is on the way getting the item, Scias goes back to Rudia and
give all the information he got to Icory(the old man in Rudia Castle). After
knowing the dragon and the Tower of Wind, he gives Scias a bag of coins as a
reward and Scias leaves. One of the henchmen asks Icory when they start to
action but he suggests they wait and see first.

Tower of Wind
There is a new path leading to the tower appears to the north of the place
between Wyndia and the forest. Enter the tower and a lift automatically goes
down for the party to board. Follow the path to enter the tower and go down,
passing a narrow walkway to a room with two doorways. Head the door on the
south and follow the passage to a storage room. Inside of this room has a
treasure chest containing Homing Bomb, Master's new weapon. Return to the room
with two doorways and go north. Follow the path to a staircase leading up to
the next area. Once the party enters, a help file appears, showing how to jump
over the jutting ledges and recognizes the wind's speed.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Watch out when making the jump, make sure the party stands at proper ledge. If
not, the party may hit the ledge above and drops down to a lower ledge below.
*************************************************************************************************
This is the center of the tower and it is a hollow structure with strong wind
blowing upwards periodically. Notice that there is a treasure chest on the
ledge above the ledge where the party entered. To reach the chest, jump to the
opposite ledge when the wind is weak. After that, wait for the strong wind to
jump up to the opposite ledge with the chest. Open the chest for 600 zenny and
jump back to the ledge where the party entered. Wait for the strong wind and
jump up to the ledge on the opposite side (south) to enter the door there.
Follow the staircase up to another door to emerge on the ledge on the highest
point (north). Jump when the strong wind blows to be sent onto another similar
area of tens of floors above the previous one. Enter the door there and follow
the long staircase to emerge on the ledge above (north) the ledge opposite to
the ledge the party just came up. Drop down to the ledge and wait for the
strong wind to carry the party up to the opposite ledge (south) with another
door. Enter and follow the staircase to emerge on the ledge on the highest
point (east). Drop down to the ledge below when the wind is weak to a treasure
chest containing two power foods. Drop down to the similar area below this one
and climb back again to this area. Repeat the staircase climbing to emerge on
the ledge opposite to the starting point. Drop down and use the strong to lift
the party to the ledge above the starting point. Wait for the strong wind again
to lift the party to the opposite ledge and jump quickly while the wind is
strong.
*************************************************************************************************
Tip
There is an alternate (shorter) route. Wait for the strong wind to carry the
party the ledge above and enter the door to go down stairs. The party will
emerge back to the ledge above the one where the party first came up from
below. Again, wait for the strong wind to carry them to the opposite ledge and
quickly jump up while the wind is strong.
*************************************************************************************************
The party now reaches a small ledge with a treasure chest. While the wind is
still strong, jump up to reach the top. Once up there leave the room to outside
area of the tower.

Nina tells Ryu they are riding the gliding aircraft on the south. The aircraft
will be launched when the wing that holds it spin towards the highest point.
Walk towards the aircraft, suddenly Icory arrives at the top and impressed with
Ryu's escaping method.  He also finds that Cray and Nina are with Ryu. Then he
calls his henchmen to get the trio.
*************************************************************************************************
Battle Description (Part I)
This battle is three on three. Do not judge them as tough enemies. Use a couple
of rounds of physical attack will bring them down.
*************************************************************************************************
Icory impresses with the trio's ability but he threatens them he has a lot of
henchmen coming up to the top and keeps battling until the trio is exhausted.
However, someone yells stop and the person who yells is Scias. He stands on the
roof of the tower and jumps down to the left wing of the windmill. Scias
returns the filthy money to Icory and he cannot believe that Scias betrays him.
To get rid of all threats, he orders his henchmen to get all of them.
*************************************************************************************************
Battle Description (part II)
With Scias is on Ryu's side, it is much easier to win this battle, as Scias
attacks enemies and heals the party. So conserve AP in the battle.
Note
After winning the battle, the experience points will not be added to Scias.
*************************************************************************************************
After two battles of failure, Icory leaves the tower. Scias apologizes to the
party and Nina forgives him. Cray tells the party to continue. After all the
members are boarded on the aircraft, the windmill beam loses its balance and
starts to turn. When the beam with the aircraft reaches the highest peak, the
whole aircraft is launched to the air and supported by a cable.

While the aircraft is hovering on the sky, a gigantic dragon appears on the
party's sight. Nina is not whether it is Larwi, the dragon of wind. The dragon
communicates with the people through its mind but it discovers Ryu keeps quiet.
It transfers its mind to an image of human-like form and asks Ryu whether he is
too amazed with his gigantic size. He tells Ryu that he is the unchanged one
and Nina does not understand what he means. The unchanged one means the person
has the ability of summoning all the nature forces around the world and this
person is being worshiped as god. Nina asks Larwi if Ryu is really a god but he
says Ryu is unable to use this ability and he tells Ryu to go to a village
where the unchanged ones live. After that, he returns himself as the dragon and
rush upwards, causing a strong force to push the aircraft aside. The aircraft
is then falls down.

6.	Holy Land
The aircraft crashes into a peak of a mountain with terrible snowstorm but
everyone is fine. Larwi also with the party and he tells the party that the
village is beneath the mountain but he has to leave the party and transform
into the dragon. The party decides to go downhill to the village mentioned.

Great Snow Mountain
Follow the path to a slope leading up. Notice there is a sachet containing a
Vitamin that is hidden nearby. Get it and follow the slope up to a junction
where there are two paths. Take the upper one to a cave and enter. This is the
upper area of the cave area with a treasure chest containing a fruit piece. Get
the item and go outside. Now take the lower path to reenter the cave but the
party will in the lower part of the area. Follow the path that goes southwest,
leading to other side of the mountain. Go forward and enter the next area. The
party is on the foothill of the mountain but first make sure Cray is leading
the party. Move the snowball so that the party can proceed forward. Turn left
(south) and at the end of the path is another snowball. Move the snowball along
the slope to a small gap and it serves as a stepping-stone for the party.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Watch out where the snowball is pushed if it hits the rock in front, it is
gone. To get back the snowball, leave this area via the northwest entrance and
enter back.
*************************************************************************************************
Take the second right turn and go forward to the upper area of the treasure
chest. Move the snowball down the slope the area with the chest and follow the
slope down. Get the Ramerer Armor and use the snowball to make a stepping-stone
to leave. In the midway move the snowball along to the junction and move down
the slope to make another stepping-stone. There is a snowball in the junction
but in front of it is a rock. When they reach on the bottom, there is another
treasure chest and a snowball nearby. Use the snowball as the stepping-stone to
reach the chest with 500 zenny. After that, leave this mountain area.

Chec Village	
Follow the path to this village. Enter the village and go to the resting house
(the building with two ladders on each sides). There is a sachet containing a
Metal. Leave this house and go to the elder's house. Once inside the house, the
elder recognizes Ryu as Dragon of Alkai and Nina tells him it was the dragon of
wind that told them to come here. The elder immediately knows Larwi from Wyndia
Territory. He then explains the light flow in each person's body (represented
in various color) and Ryu's light flow is much stronger than ordinary people.
Such person has the ability to summon all gods around the world. However, Cray
does not understand the whole and the elder knows it is hard to explain. He
advises the party to get some rest. After that, Ryu wakes up and finds out he
is alone. Leave the house and the elder is waiting outside. He tells Ryu that
other people are sleeping and he is in Ryu's dream. He tells Ryu that people
like them can summon gods but Ryu says he cannot do so. However, Master points
out Ryu's matter and jumps down from the roof. The elder feels strange of his
occurrence in Ryu's dream and asks him whether he is also the unchanged one or
not. Master then introduces himself to the elder and the elder suspects there
is a seal inside Master's mind. Master laughs and dream is over.
The next day, Ryu wakes up and finds out he is alone so get out from the house.
Outside the house, Nina and Cray are talking about Ryu's ability to summon gods
and not noticing that Ryu comes out from the house. When they see Ryu comes
outside, Cray tells him they should go and see the elder. Go up the stairs on
the left side of the stall and Scias is standing still. Go to the northeast
where the elder and Master are and the elder tells them that Master is same as
Ryu, he is the unchanged one also. Cray and Nina cannot believe Master is also
like Ryu. The elder says by breaking the seal inside Master's mind will know
the truth and asks Ryu to help him. When the portal is opened, the party enters
Master's mind and the elder tells the party the objective is to seek out the
seal and destroy it.
Follow the path to the middle where there are some small gaps between paths.
Past these gaps to reach the upper path near the beginning of Master's mind. Go
to southeast and jump towards the treasure chest there. Jump back to the path
and follow it around to the northeast to the next area. On the next area, jump
over the floating paths to the one nearest to the large rotating island. Hit
the white light to stop the island from rotating (be sure to let it stop where
the party can get to the top of the island). Once on the top, there is a
rhombus shaped seal that is sealed by four elemental structures. Talk to the
person inside the seal and players will now find out Master is actually a
woman. She wants Ryu to destroy the four structures to release her. Approach
one of the structures and the party will engage in a battle.
*************************************************************************************************
Battle Description
The four structures that seal Master are consisted of Fire, Wind, Water and
Earth. They will recover a certain amount of HP after a round. To chain magic
combo, make sure not to chain Combined Magic, as the second magic that chains
the previous one becomes all target magical attack. To conserve AP, use
physical attack for a couple of rounds or more they will vanish.
*************************************************************************************************
After the destruction, the seal in the middle breaks and Master is free. She
thanks the party and she requires a body of a witch in order to communicate
with the people in real world. Leave Master's mind and return to real world.
Ryu tells everything to the elder and there is a witch comes by. She introduces
herself to the party and she tells the elder that he is ready to accept Master.
The robot opens up its head and a spirit comes out and then enters the body of
the witch. Finally she is not a witch anymore but she is Master. After the
transfer, the elder wants to know more about Ryu and her but she says after
being sealed for so long, she needs some rest and food to eat. She will discuss
that after the enjoyment.

7.	Dragon of Alkai
At the West Continent, Fou-Lu is getting better under the woman's care but he
keeps quiet.

Back to Chec Village, Nina is worrying of the robot cannot wake up after
Master's soul is gone to the witch's body. She decides to go to the elder house
to find out how Master is. Once the party enters the house, Master has just
finished her meal and the elder asks her about Ryu and her. She tells everyone
that Ryu and her are the unchanged people and asks Nina what she knows about
this. Nina tells everything she knows to Master but Master says what Nina
answered is not the meaning of the unchanged people. She says the unchanged
people are the one who can summon the spirits from another world. The elder
then asks her what kind of spirits Ryu can summon and Master says the god of
the Fou Empire. She also explains further that Ryu's body is incomplete where
the other half is elsewhere.

At the West Continent, Fou-Lu is completely recovered. Leave the house to
outside and follow the path to exit the village houses. However, when Fou-Lu
approaches the exit, a man stops him and suspects there is a man in that
woman's house. He then starts to question Fou-Lu but that woman comes back in
time and tells him not to be rude on Fou-Lu. She advises Fou-Lu to take his
health before doing other things.
Note
After the conversation players will know the woman's name is called Mamy, not
mother.

Back to Chec Village, after hearing Ryu is incomplete, Nina asks who is the
other half and Master says he is Fou-Lu, the early emperor of the Fou Empire.

At the West Continent (again), Fou-Lu is sitting on a mattress and thinking. He
compares the world in the past and the present one. The purpose of establishing
the empire is for the peace of this world but after his 'hibernation' for a
long time, everything has changed. While he feels pity of his effort, Mamy
approaches him. The next day, leave the house as usual and the village to the
field area. Follow the path along the west, past the T-intersection. Mamy
notices Fou-Lu comes out again and stops him. She asks him where he is going
and Fou-Lu replies he wants to return to the empire. Meanwhile, a beast is
roaring so go past the bridge on the south to three farmers. Talk to them to
find out there is beast near the forest and destroying the crops. Follow the
path to the east to the nearby forest. Follow along the east (there is a
treasure chest on southwest corner but it is blocked by a tree trunk) to a
small open area. Fou-Lu notices there are many animals running away from the
forest and suddenly goes quietly. Then a beast falls down and attacks Fou-Lu.
*************************************************************************************************
Papan
Same looking as Maman in the Western Forest in the desert, except its color is
much darker and stronger (more HP). Transform Fou-Lu into Spiritual Dragon and
uses fire breath to knock down it.
*************************************************************************************************
When it is defeated, it restores to its original size and runs away. Fou-Lu
knows there is a demon on that animal. Return to the field area, the farmers
are impressed of what Fou-Lu has done to save their crops and at the time, Mamy
comes to see whether Fou-Lu is all right or not.

Back to the village (again), Nina thinks about Ryu's other half body is an
emperor and what empire it is. The elder tells it is useless to find the other
half because the time gap is too large and the other half body may be died for
a long time but Nina does not bother and decides to ask Master. Enter the house
and Nina tries to wake up Master but she is like in coma state and cannot be
waken. The elder tells Nina in order to wake Master, she must enter Master's
mind to call her. Say yes and the elder will send the party into Master's mind.
Once inside Master's mind, things are changed. It becomes the world of Master
wanted. Follow the path and stop at the small floating island with a treasure
chest besides the main path. Jump over the gap and open the chest for Sleeping
Jades of two. Return to the main path and follow it around to the southeast
(from the starting position). Take the first left turn to another treasure
chest. Go back to the main path and follow it through the second left turn, to
a temple-like building. Once the party has entered the temple, Master is
sleeping with several servants by her side. Master notices the party's visit
and she is unhappy of the party's disturbance. Nina quickly apologizes of the
party's visit and asks Master about Ryu. She knows it is strange of unable to
summon gods around the world. Cray understands her feeling but Master stops him
by telling him that two persons must be brought to meet the god, plus
humiliates Cray as terrible god. Master approaches Nina and continues that Ryu
was an emperor that is separated. Cray thinks of the empire has the power of
god and starts the war. Master says it is a fate that both of the half bodies
have meet together and at that moment, they will have same strength. Nina then
asks what if Ryu is not as strong as the other half body and Master thinks it
can be a possibility. For the sake of building up strength for Ryu, Master
decides to wake up and wants the party to leave and wait her. Leave Master's
mind and return to real world. Master finally wakes up and she urges the party
to depart. Ryu feels strange and Master reminds him. She asks the elder about a
temple that is used by unchanged person to summon god. The elder knows there is
an Temple of Alkai and Master wants to bring Ryu to summon all the gods. This
confuses Ryu and She explains that these dragons are originally same as her.
When Nina says about Master helping Ryu, Master stops Nina and wants her to
stop calling her Master. She then wants everyone to call her Deis, as this is
her real name. Nina and Cray do not know who she is actually. Deis explains
that Master is the armor robot and everyone seems to be confused. Finally Deis
urges the party to go to Alkai Temple Leave this village to the map area.

Follow the new road to the west. When Ryu reaches the question mark spot in the
middle between the village and the temple, a special event occurs so enter. The
party is traveling to the temple and Master's robot body arrives. It asks the
party why leaving the village without bringing it. Deis then tells it not to
follow and return to the village. She is then go first to the temple, leaving
the party. The party talks to Master's body and then continues the temple to
meet the witch.

Temple of Alkai
Enter the temple and past the corridor (first room) to first hall (second
room). Go to the right corridor to enter the door. The party is behind the
first hall so go to the door on the west to enter the first hall again. Go to
the beginning of the hall to a treasure chest. Get the items inside and go back
to the room behind the hall and enter the door in the middle of the north wall.
Follow the corridor with a turn to northeast to a stairs going down to the
second hall (fifth room). Go along the right wall and follow the staircase up
to a door. The party will enter the upper part of the third hall with many
vertical structures and there is a treasure chest. Go to the small block that
juts out on the left and jump between the gaps to a upside down 'U' structure.
Jump across to the same vertical structure on the opposite side (east). Open
the chest to get Dragon's scale of three and return to the previous hall. Enter
the lower door to emerge on the lower part of the hall with many vertical
structures. Head to the end of the hall to a carving on the wall and hit the
carving to raise the two vertical structures on both side but there is time
limit so rush back to the previous hall. Go to the upper door to emerge back to
the upper part of the vertical structures and jump over the gaps according to
the pattern: north, east and north, to the top of the carving. But first, stand
on the vertical structure on the left and wait the sand in the hourglass to go
down. When the structure sinks, enter the door to go in to the next hall
(seventh room). There are two treasure chests below both sides of the walkway
above. The left side contains two magic shards and the right side contains a
Soul Ring. Get the items and return to the hall with vertical structures via
the door on the southeast. Go to the carving again and hit it to raise the two
vertical structures on both sides. Repeat the same maneuver as before to the
top of the carving. This time enter the door in the middle and go through the
walkway in the next hall. Enter the door at the end and follow the corridor in
the next room (eighth room) to emerge to an open area. Master is already
waiting the party to arrival and tells the party this is the place where the
unchanged ones summon the gods. After that, she wants all the people to close
their eyes.

Meanwhile, at the West Continent, Fou-Lu senses his body's dragon flow is
rising and suddenly there is a small quake shaking the ground. Go to the field
area and the ground shakes again. Approach the T-intersection and turn right.
Talk to Mamy to know that there is a god in a nearby volcano. Leave the
village.

Yogi Volcano
When Fou-Lu is on the map, the village that he is staying is called Son
Village. Head north to the volcano and enter. There is a large boulder blocking
the way but Fou-Lu uses his strength to crush the boulder away. Continue the
way to a junction with a slope going up. Follow the slope to the top of the
mountain and follow the path that leads down to a small volcano inside the
crater. Enter the volcano and go past the corridor (first room) to an area like
hot spring (second room). Head right and leap over several gaps, passing the
small ground to a ground with stairs going up. Follow the path to the next area
(third room). Actually this area is much similar to the previous one so follow
the path to the next room (fourth room). At the end of this room, there is a
monster and Fou-Lu asks whether he is the god of the mountain. Fou-Lu is then
claiming he is the god. However the monster does not want to tolerate and
attacks him.
*************************************************************************************************
Iwaocain
It is an earth element based monster. However, in the middle of the battle, he
sends out two little monsters to join the battle. For easier and quicker kill,
transform Fou-Lu into Spiritual Dragon and use his dragon breath. After he is
defeated, he leaves several items:
ｷ	Life Shard
ｷ	Vitamins
ｷ	Magic Shard
ｷ	Wisdom Fruit
ｷ	Wisdom Seed
*************************************************************************************************
Fou-Lu discovers another unchanged people summon the gods and causes the
dragon's flow very strong. Leave this volcano via the way Fou-Lu entered. When
he leaves the mountain area, Mamy and a farmer come and ask him what has
happened.

Alkai Temple
Return to the temple, all the dragons are gathered there. Deis asks whether all
of them are present or not and Larwi confirms plus they come in bare hands
(i.e. without anything). After that he introduces himself and Deis starts to
discuss about Ryu but Nosto (dragon of mud) says Dragon of Alkai is absent.
Deis tells them that Dragon of Alkai is split into two bodies and Ryu is one of
the two bodies. Everyone knows that and Deis asks them to help Ryu getting his
complete strength. Junar (dragon of sand) feels it is unlucky for Ryu and Ta-Pu
(dragon of grass) tells that Fou-Lu, the first emperor of Fou Empire, is Ryu's
other half body. Aidia (dragon of stone) thinks maybe the awakening activity
has been started and Larwi says that Ryu as the unchanged person, has
incomplete body and Fou-Lu must decide. Deis thinks them speaking nonsense and
has a request that shocks every dragon. Nina then interrupts, asking whether
the empire is the one who behind this matter and Deis immediately reminds her
what the elder has told her before. She then wants Nina to think that Ryu's
birth has any connections. Nina replies that if two of them are together,
Fou-Lu's witch will be disappeared and that scares Ryu. Larwi tells Deis that
they, as the unchanged ones, should be neutral to any sides, which is much
better. Deis then tells the truth that with Ryu gaining back his full strength,
she can return to her own world and this shocks everyone but Ryu seems to know
something. Larwi is unhappy of Deis' selfishness but she explains are they
companions or not, then she transform back into witch body form. After that,
Deis explains that she cannot maintain her original form to be seen and all
dragons have nothing to argue.

Now at the Son Village, after bringing some relief to the villagers by
defeating the monsters, Mamy advises Fou-Lu to go back to the house for some
rest. When Fou-Lu enters the house, he is thinking about something and Mamy
comes in to tell about the village. After the rest, leave the house and go
forward. Fou-Lu finds the empire troops are here at the village so go back to
the house. He closes the door and thinks how to escape from the troops. Shortly
after that, the troops have reached to the house and the leader talks to the
landlord. Suddenly Mamy runs into the house and uses a large wood to seal the
door. The troops feel Mamy is very suspicious and knocks the door to let them
go in. Actually Mamy did not realize saving Fou-Lu could cause such a big
problem. Without any escaping method to think, head to the stove and Fou-Lu
just thinks of a way to escape. After no response from knocking the door, the
troops decide to break in to starting searching. When the door is opened, Mamy
falls out from the door. Yom goes forward to question her if Fou-Lu is inside
or not but it seems like she keeps quiet. Yom orders his troops to bring her
back to Astaner and uses her as the bullet of curse cannon.

Alkai Temple and Chec Village
Meanwhile at the temple, Larwi reminds Deis and Nosto says they (the dragons)
are expected to give help, Junar continues that Ryu must travel around the
world to find them. Deis includes that the same matter also applies on her and
the dragons are shocked. Deis then confirms what the dragons have said. Ta-Pu
says that the summons is given to their unlucky master and Aidia continues that
helping hand will be given but� Nosto says the meeting of Ryu and Fou-Lu cannot
be avoided. Junar then says they have dignity to defend of accepting any
requests and Nina asks where do they have their dignity. Nosto reminds her
about their encounter at the desert and explains that he had a bad thing to
face that time. Nosto also reminds the party that they are everywhere around
the corners of the world so he requests Ryu to find them in order to obtain
their assistance of strength. After that, everyone leaves, except Larwi. He
tells Ryu that it is useful to have two separated half bodies. Deis reminds him
what would it be if summons are made. Larwi tells her she will not like this
she were him and Ryu and him have the similarity so Ryu must decide to travel
for his quest and Larwi gives some of his power to Ryu so that Ryu can summon
him for help. Leave the temple via the way the party entered to map area.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Since Deis is using the witch's body to communicate, when encountering any
small battles, he will not join the battle and no experience points are given
to him.
Note
The dragon summon can be used for only once. After that players must bring the
party to inn or resting house for a rest to recover. Camping will not restore
the summon abilities.
*************************************************************************************************
However, the empire troops have arrived at Chec Village. The elder and Master
are inside of the resting house and they know the village is surrounded. For
the sake of Ryu, the elder wants Master to escape in order to warn Ryu and he
goes out to see the situation. Leave the resting house and Master sees two
soldiers standing in front and they also see Master. After a short
confrontation, the soldiers decide to arrest him. Beat the soldiers down and
the elder comes out. Master asks him to get into his body to escape without
wasting any time. After that, he runs toward the main door and at the same time
Rasso orders his men to get the village's elder. However, Master's escape
attempt failed. After beating the soldiers that are after Master, Rasso
approaches him and asks where is Ryu. Master intentionally talks nonsense to
Rasso and Rasso heads closer to Master to ask him again but Master still talks
nonsense. Rasso suddenly gives a punch to him and Master is having short
circuit.
After returning from the temple, the party enters the village and Cray feels
odd that the village is very quiet. Master is then walking towards the party
with all his strength but falls down. The elder comes out and Cray asks where
are the villagers. The elder tells him all of them are escaped to a safer place
and only Master and him guard the village. The witch cannot believe there are
such people who did this work. Nina hopes Master's body can be fixed or not but
no one can do it. The witch tells Nina that after Master's mind has left the
body, he cannot hold any longer. The elder however says he may have the change
to get fixed if they go to a place (I think it is a illusion). Master knows he
cannot hold any longer and laughs that his time is come. After that, he is
gone. Cray tells the elder that since the troops have come to this village, he
and the party will leave this village by tomorrow. The next day, when they come
out from the house, the elder is waiting outside and tells them there is a
village on the north called Deserted Village. He also hopes them be careful on
the road after that leave the village.

Head north to an unknown spot (question mark spot) and enter. Follow the path
to a fork junction and head right to T-intersection. Go right to a treasure
chest and get the item inside. Go along the path towards north to another fork
junction. Go left first to a dead end with a sachet. Get the Wisdom Seed inside
and return to the fork junction. Now head right and go up the stairs. The party
is now making a camp whereby Cray asks everyone rest first and tomorrow
continue the journey. He finds that Nina is miserable and approaches to her. He
tells her do not think too much about Master and she understand that the Chec
Villagers' safety is important. Enter the camp to rest. The next day, Ryu is
aware by Nina's scream so go out from the camp. Outside the camp, a troop of
soldiers comes by. When Ryu comes out, a lady confirms him whether he is Ryu
and then she introduces herself as Ursula. Ursula says she comes here because
of Dragon of Alkai and Cray asks why she says such word. While he is thinking
about the villagers' safety, Cray scolds Ursula of treating the villagers
cruelly. However, she does not know what he is talking and to make sure she is
not lying, Cray asks her about Master. She replies of do not know and Nina
tells her they want to go to the Deserted Village to make sure the villagers
are safe.
Ursula then brings the party, together with the troop, entering the village.
However, the village is already been bombarded and what are left are the ruins.
At the same time, Rasso comes out from the ruins and cannot believe Ursula
brings Ryu here. He is amazed and praises Ursula of arresting Ryu. Ursula does
not understand what he is talking about and Rasso shocks and tells this is what
have planned to arrest the dragon, plus her they duty is to search the dragon
but she says they come here to the village not bringing Ryu back. Rasso
intentionally wonders why Ursula acting strangely and there is a
heavily-wounded villager comes out but collapses. Cray is very angry of what
Rasso has done and Ursula approaches the villager to check his condition. Rasso
teases Ryu of his whereabouts and he dislikes him. When Ursula finds the
villager is dead, she is very angry with Rasso but Rasso defends himself by
saying why it is not good doing that and Ryu and Cray cannot stand anymore.
Nina feels strange and asks why the villagers are not bad people. Rasso likes
what Nina said and claims he will always win but Nina do not agree. Rasso
approaches Ryu and teases him. Ursula shouts at Rasso of saying such words and
their duty is to bring back Ryu to the empire. Rasso approaches Ursula and
tells her he knows that and a short delay is not a problem. Ursula disappoints
with him and Rasso warn the party members they will not always be the winner
then zpcalls his strongest unit, Aito to attack the party.
*************************************************************************************************
Aito
This is the strongest Rasso's man. He is invulnerable to any attacks except
gods' attack. However, Ryu can only summon Larwi once. The objective is to
reduce Ryu's HP into none to awake his mind of another dragon. Once his HP is
zero, he will automatically transform into a dragon called Kaiser Dragon and
players can sit back and watch the showdown.
Tip
If players want Ryu's experience gain the most, have all other members die and
left Ryu alone.
*************************************************************************************************
When Aito is defeated, Rasso cannot believe Ryu has such great hidden power
that defeats his man easily. However, with Kaiser Dragon awaken, Ryu cannot
control himself. The dragon on the air then eliminates Rasso and the rest of
the empire soldiers. Ursula is shocked with Ryu's power and draws out a gun,
pointing at the dragon but she is too scared to fire. Ryu screams loudly and
Nina comes to pacify him. After that, a subtitle appears to conclude this
chapter.


Chapter 3: The Flow
8.  Going for Decisive Road
Son Village
Now the scene goes to Fou-Lu. He is hiding inside the trees from the empire
troops and seeks an escape. His hiding gains suspect from a farmer. Fou-Lu
approaches him and asks where Mamy is. The farmer tells him that Mamy does not
want to be arrested and runs away. Before Fou-Lu leaves, the farmer gives him a
Life Bangle and tells him to take the path to the forest to leave this village.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Now Fou-Lu cannot enter this village.
*************************************************************************************************

Shrine
Walk towards the tombstone and Fou-Lu will read the letters carved on it. He
has nowhere to go and suddenly an animal appears. It is the one that Fou-Lu
defeated and he asks it what it is doing there. It ignores him and starts to
dash forward to knock the tombstone. Fou-Lu thinks its move is very silly but
it keeps trying and finally it opens the tombstone. Now Fou-Lu is impressed
with its move and he starts to think whether his fate is to become god's gift.
Enter the cave and follow the passage to the second area. There is a fork path
in front and head right first. At the end of the passage is a treasure chest
and get the item. Return to the fork road and go left. There is a crystal in
front of the cave containing a dragon gene inside and Fou-Lu has another form
of dragon to transform (so as Ryu). Enter the cave to the third area and follow
the passage to the next area. Go to the end of the area and Fou-Lu is now
outside of the cave with small path on the cliffs. Follow the path down to
leave this whole area.

Follow the path along the west to a tree on a multiple forks junction. Head the
path on the northwest to a treasure chest with Vitamins and get it. Return to
the junction and take path on southwest to the next area. On this area, go to
the end of the path and Fou-Lu discovers this place is too quiet. Suddenly, he
feels discomfort.

Astaner
Inside a cannon room, Yunner enters and there is a woman tied up. She is Mamy
and surrounded with guards around them. After exchanging words, Yunner wants
the guards to take care of the woman and leaves. Yunner goes into a control
room with General Yom and several operators and tells Yom that he can start the
launching. Yom orders the operators to aim target and the target is Soma
Forest! It seems like Yom is already found where Fou-Lu is and Yom tells the
operators to insert spell bullets into the cannon. Now the cannon on the
entrance of the temple is raised and open fire towards the forest.

Soma Forest
At the same time, Fou-Lu feels terribly discomfort without noticing something
on the air. By then it was too late, Fou-Lu gets and this time he suffers
deeper wound than before. He cannot stand anymore and falls down. Meanwhile, a
small metal falls down from the sky and Fou-Lu looks at it. He discovers that
small piece of metal belongs to Mamy, he cannot tolerate what Yom has done and
shout loudly before he loses his consciousness.

Back to the ruined Deserted Village, Ryu is sleeping with Nina besides him
whereas Ursula is tied up. She cannot believe have such power and thinks about
the war of the empire. Cray is thinking about the battle and Ryu's hidden power
that is unleashed. Nina then comes towards and tells Cray that after Ryu has
become Kaiser Dragon, he is unstable. She also thinks Ryu may have gone to the
West Continent. Cray ignores her but Nina suggests they should go to the West
Continent. Everyone shock of her suggestion and Nina reminds the people about
the link between Ryu and Fou-Lu. She then tests Ursula's loyalty and Ursula is
not sure. Cray suggests they first return to Chec Village then decides. After
that, Scias draws his sword and does two swings. The rope on Ursula is broken
and Cray asks Nina to see how Ryu is before going to the village.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
When Ryu transforms into Aura Dragon, he also has dragon breath like Fou-Lu.
Note
If the party returns to Deserted Village, there is a group of monsters in six
that repleshish HP of either 30000 or 15000 (depends on the encounter).
*************************************************************************************************

Chec Village
Enter the elder's house and Nina tells him about the village. Nina also tells
him how Ryu defeated Rasso and his empire troops but he is unstable after that.
The elder replies that Ryu's body is incomplete and tells Nina Ryu is the
emperor of the empire. Ursula shocks and asks why it is not Fou-Lu. Nina
explains to her about Ryu. The party tells the elder they want to travel to the
West Continent with the help of Ursula. The elder says they can get an extra
party member. Leave the house and approach the witch and Master. Firstly Deis
wakes up and she finds the party needs her on the traveling, she tells them to
wait. After that, Master is revived and acting like usual (with the support of
Deis. She tells the party to go first without worrying the witch, as he wants
some rest and he will follow the party. When the party leaves the village,
Master starts to control the body but she negotiates with him where he can act
like the usual Master without sealing her again and he obeys her. Master is
then going out from the village.
*************************************************************************************************
Note
Enter the menu window and select the special ability section. Under the ability

Enter the cave and leap over the opposite side of the stream. Head right to
another stream (the left passage leads to a dead end) and leap over several
rocks on the water to a treasure chest with Rocket Punch. Get the weapon and
leap back to the opposite side. Follow the side of the stream on the right to a
fork path and head the left path to leave the cave (the right path leads to
another dead end). There is a raft outside of the cave.
*************************************************************************************************
Mini Game
This is a raft riding on a rapid stream and its objective is to get all the
sachets on the stream before the raft falls over the waterfall. However, do not
bump the raft on either side of the stream, as this will cause the logs on raft

*************************************************************************************************
Before going down the waterfall, break the raft so that the party is on the
side of the stream and head west to a treasure chest at the end. Get the three
fish heads and this time starts the mini game seriously. When the party has
reached the foothill of the mountain,
